The Spinster Mail-Order Brides is one of Margaret Tanner’s largest single series at 35 books, all published between 2019 and 2020. Every title follows the “A [noun] for Christmas” pattern: A Marshal for Christmas, A Sheriff for Christmas, A Cowboy for Christmas, A Miracle for Christmas, and many more. The heroines are women considered “spinsters” by frontier standards who find love through the mail-order system.
The Christmas setting runs through every entry, making this a massive holiday romance collection. The spinster angle gives the heroines extra motivation and vulnerability, as these are women who have been told their chances for love have passed and who prove that assumption wrong.
